Mama Wolf Spider

All of my recent discoveries seem to have been in my vegetable garden beds and this is no exception. I was cutting down the fallow vines from this spring's sugar snap peas (Yum!) and I was busy chopping them up for composting when I saw this wolf spider (Lycosidae) with her spinneret-attached egg sac ambling amongst the stubble.

This is my Father’s world,and to my listening earsAll nature sings,and round me ringsthe music of the spheres.This is my Father’s world:I rest me in the thoughtOf rocks and trees,of skies and seas;His hand the wonders wrought.
